Oct 3, 2016 Lool why is it they have their token legends like Mac Dre and e40 but literally not one person outside of the bay knows a song by either? Iamsu Lil B is the only saving grace
Oct 3, 2016 you're so disrespectful richie rich, spice 1, rappin 4 tay, ant banks, clyde carson, celly cel. mac mall. andre nickatina, paris are all legends. just because they have a different sound doesn't mean they're trash it just means you're a dumbass
Oct 3, 2016 well if it isnt the literal whos yea im a dumbass because you typed a bunch of random words and called them legends thats some watertight logic fam
Oct 3, 2016 literal who's for people who have no idea. they are bay area legends, it's sounds like you're hating on something you don't even understand. so where's the debate?
Oct 3, 2016 i mean i just find it curious that bay area's rap music scene seems so like self sufficient and encapsulated i mean obviously someone like nas is a NY legend but people all over the world like him snoop is a long beach legend etc the only bay area rappers people outside of the bay area know are mac dre and e40 and they're only really known as bay area legends ppl dont actually like their music im just curious like what is it about bay area music that makes it so appealing to the locals and so unappealing to everyone else are you from the bay?
Oct 3, 2016 this is one area of rap I've barely listened to at all, besides a bit of Lil B. any album recommendations to get started?
Oct 4, 2016 its because all the rappers in the bay are independent they have no choice. i wouldnt of heard of them if it wasnt for being on forums but theres so many good rappers from there
Oct 4, 2016 No one has heard of them because they're independent? Nall not in the Internet climate we're in like there are some dudes from the bay who are big now like sage the Gemini and iamsu they are just terrible
Oct 4, 2016 The Bay is the most overlooked place in rap and it's sad cause they got legends like Mac Dre,E-40, Mistah Fab, The Worlds Freshest, etc.
Oct 4, 2016 Man I wish I didn't even bother engaging in that conversation did not realise I was dealing with opinions like this
Oct 4, 2016 The Bay has plenty good artists if you take the time to research instead of looking at it as just where the hyphy movement began Brotha Lynch (at least the old stuff) Andre Nickatina (older material) B-Legit Spice 1 Clyde Carson Roach Gigz IamSu Berner San Quinn Luniz (not solo Yukmouth tho) Mistaf F.A.B. E-40 Too $hort 2Pac pre-Death Row The Jacka (RIP) Lil B (The Pack was my s--- too)
